About This Item
San Francisco, CA: RE/search Publications , 1990. Book. As New. Hardcover. 1st Edition. HB - 1st. Print (Limited Edition, though limitation number not stated) - As New/As New - Signed by Daniel Mannix on title page - During the lifetime of Daniel P. Mannix, freaks were the star attractions of sideshows ? respected and revered by other carnival members. Daniel P. Mannix himself, unusually tall and awkward as a boy, always felt a kinship with others who didn't fit in and joined a carnival as a young man where he became a sword-swallower, fire-eater, and mentalist. He came to know and love carnival people and later wrote Freaks: We who are not as Others to quash the myths and misunderstandings about freaks, to celebrate their differences, to demonstrate the fullness of their lives, and to show that no matter what the external picture, underneath the human spirit burns triumphant. - Complete with stories and anecdotes of his time on the road, interviews, and historical references, Freaks: We who are not as Others also includes 82 astounding photographs and additional material from the author's personal collection. .
